PDO and PGI certified products

PDO and PGI products are the “jewels in the crown” of the quality agrifood system of Emilia-Romagna. Thanks to their exceptional characteristics, PDO products have obtained the official recognition of protected designation of origin status from the European Union. PDO certification applies to products for which the entire production process, including the procurement of basic ingredients, takes place within a limited and usually very small geographical area where, based on precise standards, an unequivocal and specific link exists between the product and the territory.
